Suggestions and queries

First up
GroWord Arena match-up:
Why must the system wait for 10 players to start a game? For early birds, from 7am to around 12nn (+8GMT), there isn't a single soul to what I see~ This means that there's no one to play in the arena? The normal channels are deserted and secluded. i suggest that once there is a readied pair, the system should automatically match them up regardless.

2) Invalid Words and "Weird" Words
I've been playing GroWord for quite some time and I've seen a few inappropriate words. Once, I didn't really see the 6Letter word something of "_uu_uu" which is kind of weird. Words like "charcoaled" and "griller" aren't accepted which is meant to be valid words. There are quite a few English names that are not accepted too which I can't remember. Many ancient country names aren't accepted. Words like "Galatians", "Ephesians" and others (books of the Bible) aren't accepted. They are valid names!

I hope that the GroWord Admins could take a look at this and probably do some amendments if this is contributive to the community.

Things to ask, are scientific names accepted? All of them? Cuz i've seen quite a few like copaiba and quinine.

Also, is forming long words with friends on purpose prohibited? Seeking the opinions of Admins.

Thanks

I'm not asking for names. I'm asking why aren't celebrities and Singaporeans accepted?

Sometimes the system or the line lagged and your words eg like 'charcoaled' become charcoale or 'celebrities' become celebritie which are both invalid words.

I remember doing a word which I later checked meant a crooked male private part (plus a few others internet-acceptable words) which were also unacceptable.

Also few instances when I do a word (with few bonus tile) was invalid but when my opponent did the same word he/she got very high score for it.

So all I can say is that it's system lagged.....

[kudunrox]

yeah... but... Finn and I did them and it failed upon both of us doing it.

I just know all these valid :-
Alexandra, Cinderella, Macro, Marcus, James, Warren, Sammy, Jesus, Davidson, Anderson, Simpson, Angelia, Jacqueline, Angela, Brandon....etc.

But... I just wondering WHY these words can be formed in Groword :-
Viwawa, Groword, Sushido, Speedoku, Stwack, etc. (Viwawa words)

Besides that, do you all guys know about the abbreviations?
How much do you guys know?
LTD, GMT, STD, DVD, TEL, PVC...etc.

Those games are Viwawa's trademark thus not surprising that they are acceptable..

LTD = limited as in LTD CO (limited company)
GMT = Greenwich Mean (formerly known as Meridien) Time
STD = standard (or ***ually transmitted disease????)
DVD = digital video decoder
TEL = telephone
PVC = polyvinyl chloride

and TNT = trinitrotoluene BOOM!!!!
